LAHORE, March 10, 2015 - Activists shout slogans during a demonstration against the sentence of a former police commando who killed Punjab's governor, in eastern Pakistan's Lahore, March 10, 2015. The Islamabad High Court dismissed an appeal against the death sentence of Mumtaz Qadri, a former police bodyguard who shot dead Punjab governor Salman Taseer in Islamabad in 2011. Assassin Mumtaz Qadri had told police that he killed Taseer because of the governor's opposition to Pakistan's blasphemy law.
